Dont panic yet. One of my beardies ate some pathos once. I had more reaction than he did. Watch for restricted breathing. The juice in leaves and stems can cause swelling of tissue. Here is an excellent link to what beardies can and cannot eat: http://www.thebeardeddragon.org/bearded-dragon-nutrition-data.php#poison

Exactly don't panic! How much of the plant did he eat? My cats have gotten into my pothos and the most it's done is just made them throw it up. Maybe try to give him some water through a syringe to keep him hydrated and flush it out of his system. Or a warm bath to help him poop it out.

he ate like an inch of stem and 2 square of leaves but the funny thing? he seems just fine! gosh the stupid dragon gives me a heart attack by getting loose and eating something bad then like sits back and laughs at me yesterday he was helping plant flowers and ate half a marigold flower too ugh dang thing ill keep an eye on him but the only thing thats abnormal is him being more active than usual hes just being a madman running around like hes excited about something haha

Maybe he's just happy spring is coming! I think marigolds are ok to eat. I thought I saw them on the list of ok foods as long as there are no chemicals on it.

I think they consider it part of their job to spike our adrenaline levels!

So THAT'S what is going on in their heads while I'm at work! I can read Dexter's mind now:"I'll show her, I won't eat crickets this week. Wait that was last week. I know, this week I won't eat cricket OR ssupers! Oh will momma be freaked out all week on that one! I know when she leaves me in my tank all day to go to work she's really at a spa!"
